'VERY GOOD EDDIE'
IS VERY GOOD
Well-Balanced Cast Presents
Version of "Over Night" in
Attractive Manner
The house Inst night at the Or
pheum was filled almost to capacity
for the one performance of the Mar
bury-Comstock presentation of tile
poplar success, "Very Good Eddie,"
with a cast that for farce was excel
lent. a chorus that was beautifully
tumed and well trained, both in feong
and dance, a plot that abounded with
foolish situations arising from two
honeymooning couples being on the
same boat, the wire of one and the
husband of the other couple having to
go ashore; both of them missing the
boat. Then it's the search, one for her
husband, the other for his wife. When
the next day arrives they find eacli
otner in a hotel, and all ends happily.
For a musical comedy, "Very Good
Kddie" has more than an ordinary
plot, due to the fact that the show m
its present form is a new version of a
farce a year or two ago presented
under the title "Over Night." Music
and dancing were added, and "Very
Good Eddie was the result. By thb
way, "Very Good Eddie" is only the
last line of the show, and comes when
the weak husband or the domineering
wife decides that he will be boss. The
title of the show is the compliment
paid him when he announces his dic
tatorship. There's 110 sense in men
tioning a lot of names and characters;
"Very Good Eddie" has a cast whicn
was un to standard, and a little above.
The chorus was equally good. And the
production was staged in a manner
which was worthy of these two de
tails. After all, what more can one
wish in a show?

Majestic jestic to-night so that when
Bowman and Company
come along with their rival Fashion
Show the last half of the week you can
make a comparison between the two
and see which you think is the more
elaborate. Many will recall the won
derful garments supplied by Bowman
and Company last year, and it is ru
mored that the one this season will
far surpass that of last season. Four
other Keith acts round out the vaude
ville list the first half of the week.
Surrounding: the Fashion Show the
last half are the International Four, a
quartet of men in a comedy and Ring
ing act; Larry and Sally Clifford,
blackface comedy entertainers; Gene

one other attraction.

himself before Claire, and the girl, bent
upon reveninging herself upon Julian,
calls the police and swears that
Julian killed Long in a quarrel over
